“I glanced, wide eyed, from Edward’s grimace to Jacob’s sneer.”

Perhaps there could be no joy on this planet without an equal weight of pain to balance it out on some unknown scale.

Like all bullies, they’re cowards underneath the swagger.

Sometimes, fact mixed with fiction so thoroughly that, though no lies were told, it was hard to remember what was strictly true.

I miss you when you’re not there. When you’re happy, it makes me happy. But I could say the same thing about Charlie, Jacob. You’re family. I love you, but I’m not in love with you.

Just because you want something to be true doesn’t make it that way. -The Host

You are safe inside your mind. No one can reach you there.

If I was given the choice between having the world back and having you, I wouldn’t be able to give you up. Not to save five billion lives.

Dazed and disoriented, I looked up from the bright red blood pulsing out of my arm – into the fevered eyes of the six suddenly ravenous vampires.

Sometimes you have to learn to love what’s good for you.

Something I’ve never seen in all my lives. I’m staring at hope.

No one dressed by me ever looks like an idiot.

And then I saw the way he looked at her, like he was a blind man, seeing the sun for the very first time.

You can’t trust a vampire, trust me.

Perhaps without the lows, the highs could not be reached.

Lord, I shall see you no more with the eyes of the flesh.

We must see that we are afraid of the thing we most desire, and so we live a mediocre life, never bringing to consummation the primary impulse of our heart.

As you well know, you just can’t believe everything you see and hear, can you?

It is easier to gaze into the sun, than into the face of the mystery of God. Such is its beauty and its radiance.

I’ve definitely seen bands before they made money kind of change their thing on the next tour, and I prefer it when it’s a little more raw.

Strive to see God in all things without exception. Do not smother yourself…If you start smothering yourself with a host of cares and longings and wishes … you will be disabling yourself from serving God with all your heart.

Resistance cannot be seen, touched, heard, or smelled. But it can be felt. We experince it as an energy field radiating from a work-in-potential… Its aim is to shove us away, distract us, prevent us from doing our work.

Just because its not on the focus doesn’t mean its not there.
